the big 20.

Happy birthday to my bestest friend and sister Michelle Cahoon!

I've got so many wonderful memories with this girl it's crazy. She worked for my mom for 2 years and I absolutely loved working with her. People think she is just this shy girl, but once you get to know her, you will never think that again! Everytime I drove past her house, I would randomly stop and we would talk for hours. I honestly look up to her so much. She has the cutest style, she is so nice to everybody around her, and she is so stong in the church. Even though she is all the way down in Utah going to university and I'm still just this little girl in high school, we keep up a pretty good friendship :) I love this girl so much, and can't wait for her to come up and visit again! Happy 20th Meessshhh :)

november!

with november coming to an end, there is only one word that describes how i feel about this month.

november = AMAZING :)

VARSITY BASKETBALL

oh hi, ya, i made the girls varsity basketball team. NO BIG DEAL or anything :) just getting ready for another great season coming my way. alumni is coming up the 26th and 27th of november! so excited to get out there on the court again. our first league game is december 1st against magrath. watch out! here come the COUGARS!

i know who i am

sometimes, you need to step outside, get some air, and remind yourself of who you are and what you want to be.

sadies?

so sadies is this friday, i am super stoked. its basically THE best dance of the school year. my two best friends and i asked our three best guy friends! its gunna be so fun because we hang out with them all the time anyways so why not make it a date?! so we asked them one day after school when they were at volleyball practice.

whit asked dal.

inside joke :)

Unfortunately; there's no pictures of ashley and i asking aaron and colton. we were in a bit of a hurry.

and this is how they replyed.. they took us on a scavenger hunt through waterton! you can only imagine how that worked out. three blonde girls trying to figure out clues. ya, we basically had to call them every clue asking for help, but we finally got it!

the first clue we had to go to cameron falls. we climbed the little hike to the top and someone STOLE our next clue! we sat their searching for about 20 minutes. while we were there, why not take a picture?

my best friends :)

 

one of the next clues had one of us kayak out to the bouy and retrieve the next clue. it was actually really scary watching whitney float away into the lake! it was very swift! look at her, she was so happy to start and then she started freaking out. haha :)

then colton pulled out some macbeth questions on me that had us driving up to the prince of wales searching the rocks. dallin said that they left us three water bottles for our next clue. but again, someone stole them! but our next clue, which of course, was hiking up bears hump. we werent to happy about this. so when we finally reached the top, they were there waiting, big smiles on their face, until we wiped them away by yelling at them for making us hike. we thought we were done, but nope. we had to search around for a bucket which had the answer. well when we found it; it had some really really good cookies with a big YES on top of the bucket!

then being the nice boys they are, took us for a little picnic. ladies, watch out. their ours :)

just kidding, but we ARE very lucky for the wonderful friends we have! sadies is gunna be so much fun!

tick tock

the day begins in the middle of the night. i am not paying attention to anything but the clock noises, i am the one who takes everything so seriously, but all i hear is the ticking, and the pulsing, it seems underneath every part of this moment, there is nothing i can do to change this perfect moment. for i never could imagine anybody but you right next to me, listening to the ocean waves. i am listening and i am not listening because your voice seems to drown everything else out, it's something i'm feeling all over. you complete me.
